Leave him a billion pennies and he'd still be doing just fine.
How about $3.50?
I said, "Get the hell outta here, you damn monstah!"
"Oh Lord, they didn't bring a sacrifice chile."
I think he might actually be worse off with a hundred billion pennies for the full billion dollars. Not only would dealing with that many pennies in one place legitimately be challenging, but having that percentage of the total pennies in circulation suddenly removed could be enough to get the US Government to reconsider deprecating them, leaving him with the bag.
I say give him the full billion in pennies.
If it's like the old half-cent coins, then pennies will be worth more as collectibles after they're discontinued.
People are hyper aware of this. That's part of the problem, now there are penny collectors causing an increase in demand.
I thi k the US should follow other countries' lead and just stop minting the penny. It's basically a subsidie anyway.
